Common questions from Brocketsbrae clients
Is Brocketsbrae too small for you to travel to?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. We cover the whole of Scotland. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Is a hospital such as Birkwood Castle somewhere you can work?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.
What if there’s asbestos in the old mastic?
Asbestos is possible in some older mastics, particularly in buildings from before 2000. Before we disturb old sealant in an older building, we ask to see the asbestos register or survey, and work stops until any suspect material has been tested. Removing asbestos is a job for asbestos specialists, not us.
Will you quote for a small job?
Whatever the size, the process is the same: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed.
What’s the quickest route to a quote?
The quote form is the simplest route, though you can also ring 01277 525 020 or send photos by email. Include photos or drawings if you have them.
Do you offer coloured sealant?
That depends on the product. Some ranges offer many colours, others very few, so the available colours are confirmed with the quote.
How long before the toilets can reopen?
Each sealant has a cure time before it should get wet. We plan the phasing around that so there are always rooms open.
Washroom sealing in Brocketsbrae
Since 2005 we have resealed commercial washrooms for facilities teams, contractors and building owners. Our applicators are CSCS-carded, and we are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member. There is public liability insurance behind every job. Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months. We work on vanity units and basins, accessible toilets and changing rooms and IPS panels and cubicles, and the failures we’re asked to look at most are users noticing mouldy joints and urinal joints that look unhygienic. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, in Brocketsbrae it comes down to the same thing: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
Hotels and holiday accommodation in rural Scotland have busy and quiet seasons, and resealing washrooms in the quieter months keeps rooms available when they’re needed.
Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: twelve months on the work we carried out. Faults in the structure, damage and other trades’ work fall outside it, and we say so plainly.

Toilets, showers and kitchens around Brocketsbrae
The east of Scotland, where Brocketsbrae is, gets less rain than the west. Even so, a washroom that doesn’t dry out between uses will see mould get into its sealant.
Healthcare washrooms on sites such as Birkwood Castle, 0.8 miles south-west of Brocketsbrae, are resealed area by area, under the site’s own infection-control rules. At a school such as Lesmahagow High School, changing rooms and kitchens need cleanable joints as much as the toilets.

What the job involves on each surface
Basins and vanity tops
Basin joints get wet every time someone washes their hands, so the wall joint and bowl surrounds tend to fail before anything else. We remove the old bead and lay a fresh one of sanitary silicone.
Urinals and WC pans
Floor joints around WC pans are often forgotten. They are checked with everything else.
What sealant work can’t fix
Being straight saves everyone time. New sealant won’t cure:
- Vanity carcasses that have swollen
- Water from plumbing, not from a joint
- Water escaping beneath the floor rather than through a joint
If in doubt, ring 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will say what we think before you book.
What we seal
- Accessible toilets and changing rooms
- Showers, trays and wet room floors
- Kitchens and tea points
- IPS panels and cubicles
- Vanity units and basins
- Urinals and WCs
Should maintenance staff do it?
Redoing a failed joint usually costs more than getting it right at the outset, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are easy to get wrong without experience.
Why act early in Brocketsbrae
Open or mouldy joints are hard to keep hygienic which matters most in healthcare, food and education settings. Sound, smooth joints are much easier to keep clean. Exposed buildings in Scotland take a lot of weather, and for a smaller place like Brocketsbrae, a repair visit takes planning, so it’s better to act early.
Pricing washrooms and wet areas depends on quantities, condition and access, and any specification that applies. Ask us for a fixed quote.

When to call us in Brocketsbrae
Daily commercial cleaning wears sealant faster than people expect. Strong chemicals, scourers and jet washing roughen, discolour or lift a bead, and dirt and mould then get a foothold.
It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:
- Resealing that didn’t last because the old bead stayed
- Sealant lifting along a tray edge
- Users noticing mouldy joints
- Failed sealant in a tea point or staff kitchen
Church halls and community buildings, such as those at Lesmahagow Old Parish Church, have kitchens and toilets used by many groups, and their sanitary sealant works hard.
